After Effects Error - Zero Denominator comparing ratios (17 :: 16) error in Ae version 23.6

If you're using an Environment Layer (in C4D renderer), try deleting it. Thats how I fixed the same issue. Of course, now I don't have an envirnment layer 😕😕

The good old Zero Denominator-error ... I know that switching to Classic 3D renderer solves the issue but I'm working on a project where I need to extrude and bevel a shape layer so using it is not an option.

What is the solution to this??

This workaround worked for me... I could even delete that extra layer once I hit play once and keep using Cinema 4D renderer.

It seems like this error is an update bug... 

Unsure what's going on, but an error I've never seen before has been making frequent appearances over the last couple weeks. 

I understand the source of the error to be that somewhere in the project, some script is attempting to divide by zero. I'm not sure where this could be occuring, as this error even appears in new projects where I do not add any scripts. 

Is this a common experience? Every project seems of mine seems to be unsafe from this error. Could it be caused by an outdated plug-in?

Scratch that. My memory is still being obliterated with the last version. Couldnt edit my last post

This new version of AE has also been maxing out my memory for some reason (64gb) which Ive never seen happen, and previewing has been a nightmare in general. I installed the last version 23.5 and now my project is running smooth so far and memory is not even half used up.

I have been getting the same issue among many projects. Ive noticed it only happening if I tried to preview the comp while a keyframe was selected. But now it is just stuck. Classic Renderer didnt help me.

Also experiencing this issue, not using any 3D elements. All footage is from a source that has never caused issues, getting issues on media that I know worked before the app was updated.

Yet another case of Adobe updating their software and breaking it, happens every single update. Absolutely useless.

Had the same issue. Had the Classic renderer and everything. But then I realised that it only happens when I hit the "spacebar" to playback, but didnt happen when pressing "play" button on the top right. I figure it has something to do with framerates. Because it gived this error box many times in a row, it could be the number of footage that has the strange FPS. And in this project I have every framerate possible; 24 , 25,  30,  59.94 etc. But somehow it is gone now. Purged the history and restarted... hopefully not coming back.
